Textarea

Hello,

I've wrote a small applet that adds a "test" text in a textarea;

TextArea display = new TextArea(20, 60);

public void run() {
display.appendText("Test");
}

This works fine when I'm testing my applet in appletviewer,
but when I try to watch it in Internet Explorer, the "Test" text doesn't appear
in my textarea. I have tried to figure out how this could happen, but I can't find any
solution.

Does anybody have a clue what I could have made wrong?

I'm using JDK 1.1.3 to compile my applets. (Yeah, I know it's old...)

Thanks in advance,

this was annoying for me too when I first was learning about applets.. I had to find an html converter at java.sun.com that created a lot of HTML garble to make the applet work in IE or Netscape. Its most likely not your code.. its your embed stuff.

yes i beleive he is correct. thers a book called "Java Bible" by Aaron Walsh and John Froniawiak (i think thats how you spell it) and it helps quite a bit. it also has a disk with applets and jdk ect in it.
